Near homeless veteran turns to law school for fresh start
Anthony, 53, served in the
Navy from 1982-1983 on the USS Mount Baker. There is a long-standing family
history of joining the military. His dad, brother and son have all been
enlisted. One of the biggest joys of joining the Navy was visiting 15
countries. The military molded Anthony into the person he is today. He strives
to reach a standard of excellence, discipline, and uniformity. Anthony was near
homeless and was in need of assistance after he had taken in and supported his
three grandchildren. HVAF helped him move into permanent housing, provided him
a washer and dryer, and made sure his grandkids were provided for at Christmas.
“HVAF lifted the weight and continue to care about me. They went well beyond
what I ever imagined,” he said. Currently, Anthony is a law student at U of
Indy and looks back at HVAF as the cornerstone of his current success.
